Blue Ghost Firefly Tours

May 7 @ 7:30 pm - May 17 @ 10:30 pm
$165 – $350

Unlock awe and wonder as you search for the rare Blue Ghost Fireflies. Limited season, small groups, full magic.

Join us for an extraordinary adventure dedicated to the search for the elusive Blue Ghost Fireflies, a rare and magical phenomenon found in a tiny handful of places in the world, including Western North Carolina! For just two short weeks each spring, they emerge, glowing with a soft, steady blue light that hovers close to the earth like whispers of starlight come down to dance.

The 2026 season is May 7-17, with both night hike and overnight retreat options.

Though the season is short, the awe and wonder are yours to keep long after you return to the “real world”. We can’t wait to share this special adventure with you!

Tour Highlights:
3 hours in the forest
Walk about 1 mile on an easy path
Exclusive access to a private, protected forest
Small groups of 15-20 for a more intimate experience
An adventure rooted in mindfulness to support you in fully engaging with the magic
No hiking experience needed
Don’t want to drive late at night? No problem! Stay overnight mere steps from the firefly habitat.
This is by far our BEST viewing site in 10 years!
